Wang Wang

Wang Wang is a male giant panda born on 23 August 2008 at the China Conservation and Research Center for the Giant Panda. He is the offspring of Zhuang Zhuang (studbook 550) and Mei Mei (studbook 649), two adult giant pandas housed at the China Conservation and Research Center. Currently living at Adelaide Zoo in South Australia, he participates in the joint giant panda conservation research program run by the zoo and Chinese wildlife management authorities. The program supports captive breeding research and public education focused on giant panda habitat protection. As one of only two giant pandas permanently housed in Australia, Wang Wang draws large public audiences that help raise awareness of global endangered species conservation. He displays typical giant panda foraging behavior, spending most of his day feeding on bamboo and resting. His presence supports long-term research into giant panda biology, and strengthens collaborative conservation ties between Australia and China.
